And he struck down an Egyptian, a man of great stature — The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah went down to him with a staff and snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and killed him with his own spear — Benaiah defeats a tall Egyptian, disarming him and using his own spear against him. The reversal of weapon—taking the enemy's spear and using it for his defeat—is clever and shows martial skill.
